Introduction

Infrastructure resilience has become a strategic priority for organisations responsible for essential services, critical assets, and national infrastructure. Increasing exposure to climate events, supply chain disruptions, geopolitical tensions, cyber threats, and operational failures requires organisations to move beyond traditional risk management approaches and adopt comprehensive resilience strategies.

The Infrastructure Resilience and Assets Protection training course provides participants with the knowledge and tools required to assess asset criticality, identify vulnerabilities, and design resilience programmes that support operational continuity and recovery. Drawing upon internationally recognised frameworks and leading practices, the training course enables participants to strengthen governance, improve preparedness, and build adaptive capacity across infrastructure environments.

Key focus areas include:
